It seems that Eastern Airways have dropped the Brussels-Southampton route. I was looking at their website and it seems that it is not available for booking.

Maybe the route can be restarted together with another UK route? ex: Aberdeen - Southampton - Brussels

So the only A330-200 route will be THE newark route?

[BRU]

As of this weekend, DHL will start a 6 weekly cargo flight between BRU and CVG with a B767-300F. Aircraft is fully temperature controlled, so ideal for pharmaceutical and life science business.

"Senegal Airlines (DN, Dakar Yoff-Léopold Sédar Senghor International (DKR)) has entered into a cooperation agreement with Brussels Airlines (SN, Brussels National Zaventem (BRU)) effective February 25 allowing it to sell seats on Brussels Airlines services from Dakar Yoff-Léopold Sédar Senghor International (DKR) to Conakry G'bessia International (CKY) and Freetown Lungi International (FNA) on a codeshare basis. The agreement marks the end of diplomatic arguments between Belgium and Senegal over the withdrawal of traffic rights for Brussels Airlines following the launch of Senegal Airlines in 2011. The Belgian carrier had previously been able to sell seats on the flights from Dakar itself. Brussels Airlines currently serves both Conakry and Freetown three times weekly from Brussels with A330-300s operating via Dakar."

Freetown will become 4 weekly as from June I believe (so Dakar will be daily again). This was already known, but just some extra information and the codeshare(?) started some days ago.

Flights to EDI will be operating on A319 next winter.

Once the flight goes twice daily to include a night stop service, it will be operated on RJ100.

Actually it is a Q400...
